Hi Richard, It is inspiring to see what you have done. I will appreciate if you can respond with some explanations about the way sitting on the bottom affects the hull and the bottom paint. Thank you.
Very well done, part the way through doing the same thing on a Tomahawk 25. A full back to hull nut & bolt rebuild. Is it worth the time & money? Of course not but I will end up with a boat that will outlast me.
I would like to say; nice work, but I have no idea what it looked like before? Like your other video with the boat in the mud with no explanation. Shoddy work.
This video isnt work ,it is a simple record for friends and family to see the boat , thats it ! when i made it i gave no thought to anything else and had no idea it would be so popular .
beautiful Contessa 26 - big thumbs up to you Richard
Very impressive job u done on boat. Looks beautiful ❤❤❤❤
Fantastic renovation. Take pride in this beautiful boat. Well done. Thanks for sharing.
Cracking job!!! Always worth the effort the Contessas..one day they'll save your life👍👍
She is beautifully restored!
I love a good Contessa, but now you have a great one!
Very good video and a beautiful boat now, puts my video to shame. Well done and thank you for putting it on.
very nice work - a tidy ship, and good as new!
I love the woodwork!!
Beautiful work
Beautiful work you have done! and thanks for sharing, I'm hoping to the same, buy an old Contessa 26 and tame my time in making her beautiful again.
Better than new, congrats!!!

Very nice, good job! Do you still have it?
Beautiful vessel. Thanks
That woodwork 😍
Great job I'm starting Renovating one, the upper outside is pretty grim, you mention painting yours. Any advice on whether paint or gelcoat is better?
beatiful work Sir.
I'm going to have too get a boat like that and do the same...lovely.
Bravo good job, many thanks for video
Nine years ago now.. lol

Lovely job!
Beautiful
Great job. Had any issues with storing boat in mud?
Nice job👍🏻
Beautiful, nice job. Do you have heat?
I'm thinking about learning to sale I'm thinking about getting a contessa
Nice Job!
You can see the love that's gone into her. The first scratch will be the most annoying.
I'm afraid even to look
Niiiiiiiiice!

Agreed, a before image would've been nice. As for the mud, if you need an explanation search "Medway tides" in google.
